Getting the component type from a object in craftyjs


Let's say I have a code like the following.

Crafty.c("SomeType",{//do something... });
var obj=Crafty.e("SomeType");

Can anyone tell me whether there is a function to check the type of the object?

Ex:

Crafty.isComponent(obj,"SomeType")==true

or

Crafty.getComponents(obj)=="SomeType"

Solution

  • Ah found out from the Crafty.js file that there is a .has() function to check for a component. :)

        /**@
        * #.has
        * @comp Crafty Core
        * @sign public Boolean .has(String component)
        * Returns `true` or `false` depending on if the
        * entity has the given component.
        *
        * For better performance, simply use the `.__c` object
        * which will be `true` if the entity has the component or
        * will not exist (or be `false`).
